Tolcher sets out to write an entire book without ejaculating—an experiment in sublimation, desire, and control. In just over a month, he attempts to channel his libido into art, diving into the ancient alchemical process—nigredo, albedo, citrinitas, rubedo—in a relentless search for meaning. But what begins as a test of discipline becomes something far more dangerous. Libido, after all, isn’t just about sex.
